“’King of Nothing’ is a song
about wanting to be the best,” states BROADSIDE
vocalist Ollie Baxxter. “We chose this life as touring musicians but it can be painfully
lonely. We all want to be heard and play to massive crowds while making enough
money that our parents won’t worry about our futures. I’m so proud of our
accomplishments as a band but some nights, after the show ends and those crowds
leave the venue, when you’re in the back seat of a dark van, you feel like
you’re not doing enough and those dreams you have become nightmares of what
you’ll never achieve. You can be on top of the world and have nothing.”

“I was going through a real out
of body misery when writing ‘Empty,’” Baxxter playfully admits. “The duality of
a being a broken-hearted romantic splits a person. On one hand, you've been
wronged, you should run and never look back. On the other, the rewarding time
spent and memories made keep you trapped in the worrisome ‘what if this person
leaves’ psychosis. I wanted to write a dance-y song making fun of how
unfortunate it is to be in love, sometimes.”

Fans can fall in love with BROADSIDE’s live show once again as the
band will support Set It Off across North America starting June 11 and wrapping
up July 19. BROADSIDE will then head
into the studio to record a brand new album, the follow-up to 2017’s smash Paradise. In the fall of 2019, the band
return to Europe for a month+ long tour (dates to be announced soon) and more
slated for 2020.

CAROUSEL KINGS have released a
soul-stirring new song, “Monarch,” from their upcoming full-length album Plus Ultra, available on May 31, 2019.
That same day, the Pennsylvania punks kick off the Plus Ultra Tour Phase 1 in
Albany, NY with more dates to be announced soon.

As the band packs
their bags for the road, Alexander adds, “We are totally thrilled to get out
there, do the work and show fans where CAROUSEL
KINGS are at as we prepare to enter a new decade. Plus Ultra is the culmination of where this band came from and
where we are going. And we hope to see you in your city soon!”

AWAKEN I AM have released “The Stages Of Grief,” a brand new video from their
upcoming EP The Beauty In Tragedy, set
for release on April 26, 2019. The five song collection plays as a
tribute dedicated entirely to their late guitarist Connor Verner-Oakley.

“The love that we all shared with
Connor ran so deep,” admits drummer Luke McKenzie. “With such a sudden loss we
never got the chance to let him know how much we loved him, how proud we are of
him and how we cherished the final times we spent together. This recording was
the hardest thing we have ever had to work through and move forward from. ‘The
Stages Of Grief’ is self-explanatory, we are working through all of this and finding
our way of saying he will always be loved and always missed.”

Never afraid to show their
loveable demeanor, CAROUSEL
KINGS
are delivering a second peek into their upcoming album through the new video “Lock
Meowt,” ahead of the release of Plus
Ultra on May 31, 2019. The video showcases the Pennsylvania quartet’s lighter
side without straying from their bounce-off-the-wall rhythms and wildly energetic
sing-alongs.

AWAKEN I AM have released a brand new video for “Kin,” from their upcoming EP The Beauty In Tragedy, set for release on April 26, 2019. The five-song collection plays as a tribute to their late guitarist Connor Verner-Oakley, and features the previously released song/video “Dissolution,” with “Kin” and three new tracks dedicated to Oakley.

“Words cannot describe how excited I am to have the opportunity to work with Thursday again. Thursday is a band that people believe in. They are innovators. They are the voice of a generation. Some bands simply make songs that people like. Other bands thrive on gimmicks. The true artists create something that changes people’s lives. Thursday are true artists. They have a very special and unique magnetism. They are a band that you can believe in at a time when there is not a surplus of bands with any real substance or meaning. ‘Full Collapse’ is an album that has influenced so many bands as well as spearheading an entire musical movement. Working with the band on that pivotal and significant album was magical. Thursday and Victory have done great things together. I am so happy and honored that tradition will continue. Some people might want to call this a sort of homecoming. I simply see it as a reunion of passionate people that have done great things in the past getting the opportunity to do them again. This is something that people can feel good about. And to me, that is the best karma for any relationship,” said Victory Owner Tony Brummel.
The release, as of yet untitled, will consist of a full length feature DVD and a full length Album. The DVD will tell Thursday’s 10 year career story from the beginning to the present. It will contain interviews with the band and their team, archived show and behind the scenes footage spanning the band’s career to date and hints to the band’s future. The DVD will feature enhanced menus, a “Making of the song” and “The Making of Full Collapse” featurettes, the original version of “How Long Is The Night” with visuals, an audio-enhanced photo gallery, laminate gallery and more. The CD will contain three, brand new and unreleased songs along with a collection of live tracks and b-sides.
